The Courier will conclude its Cutest Dog Contest on Aug. 21 ahead of National Dog Day on Aug. 26.

To have your dog featured on our contest page, email your dog's name and photo to class1@couriernews.com and include the dog owner's name, telephone number and email address in the body of the email. Each entry costs $19, and a representative from The Courier will contact you regarding payment options.

Entrants can also print and complete the accompanying form and attach it to their dog's photo, which can be delivered to The Courier's office at 201 E. Second Street in Russellville or mailed to P.O. Box 887, Russellville, AR 72811.

The winner of the contest, which will be selected by employees of The Courier, will receive a prize package from one of the contest's sponsors.
